Im having rubbing issues with these wheels! Im on stock suspension running a 245/40 tire. I had my rears rolled. The fronts rub with the side skirts and fender liner during slow turning. I had to cut a small section off of my side skirts so i solved that problem. Still rubs slightly with the fender liner but heat gun should fix that.

However my rears are rubbing hard against something when i go over big bumps especially when i have people in the car. The rears are rolled enough to not rub on the fender and i did the bumper bolt relocation and cutting of the tabs this weekend thinking that would solve it but I was wrong! Still makes the same noise. What else could i be rubbing on? Anyone?

Camber: 2.1f, 1.5r
Swift Sport springs over MR Bilsteins
EvoDave "style" front fender kit (Middle Hole)
Rear fenders rolled, slight pull, bumper seam grinded off and rear bolt relocated
Slight fender liner rub full lock fronts, depends on suspension compression (sometimes none)

If you plan on buying them soon and new from wheeldude, make sure to call them and ask them which colors they have in stock. A couple months ago i was deciding between colors for the grids. Once i finally decided to go yamaha black, i was all psyched up, and ordered them online only to get a call back the next day that they didnt have them and they made it seem like they weren't planning on having them ever. Why they dont update their website...i dunno. Even for matte black they had a 6 week waiting time. So yeah, just a heads up.

Hyberblack on a BBY is killer. But don't do that because that's what I have

Not to bump a super old thread but I've only found one tb evo with 18" hyper black grids on google search an this res was horrible. Tons of tb white wheels is there really no one else running those wheels or do they only post about as often as I do lol. Gonna buy a set this this week post up when they mounted. How many of you bought them with tires or found better deals local to you?

I bought a set of used flat black grids for $600 locally in MINT condition. Then scored some 255/35 tires for a screaming deal online and at the time I had a TB evo but knew I would be wrapping it to matte black... So now thats what Im DD flat black on flat black. Love the look and congrats on your purchase.

Still my favorite knock off wheel. I still don't understand my Ray's doesn't make the TE in +20 (unless its a custom run).
